Ubud and central Bali Tour
Photos by Glenn Ituriaga and Kara Santos
Ubud is the heart and soul of Bali. Although it has become busier as more tourists flood in over the years, it remains the island’s cultural core. It has a lot to offer: breathtaking scenery, nature, more temples, and a quieter, more traditional atmosphere.
Although it is possible to stay in Ubud, most tourists visit only on a day tour. Klook has a lot of Ubud offers, but the two with the best itineraries are the following: a join-in shuttle service and a private tour package.
JOIN-IN shuttle SERVICE. This is a transportation service (with driver) only. It does NOT include entrance fees to each attraction and hotel pick-up/drop-off. but it will take you to key spots in Ubud.
PRIVATE tour PACKAGE. A private tour that includes hotel pick-up/drop-off, admission fees, and a bottled water. It has two more stops than the join-in shuttle service.
Here are the usual stops.
Tegenungan Waterfall
Tegalalang Rice Terrace (optional jungle swing experience)
Ubud Monkey Forest
Ubud Art Market
Elephant Cave (not included in the join-in shuttle service)
Tirta Empul holy Springs (not included in the join-in shuttle service)

Uluwatu Temple
Pura Luhur Uluwatu is a Hindu sea temple that sits atop a cliff. It is one of the six key temples that make Bali’s spiritual pillars. The main temple is open only to worshipers. However, visitors are treated to a spectacular view of the sea from outside the temple.
The temple ground is visited by monkeys dwelling in the forest that surrounds it. These monkeys are known to snatch things from visitors so take care of your belongings, especially your accessories like sunglasses. There’s a cliffside pathway also that gives visitors different viewing points of the Indian Ocean, the tides, and the sunset. You need to wear sarong and sash to enter the temple ground. These are provided at the temple for free. the best time to go is early afternoon, just before the crowd thickens, as it is one of the best places to see the sunset on the island. In fact, the famous Kecak Dance, a Balinese art form, is performed daily starting at dusk, affording the audience to watch two beautiful masterpieces — the dance and the sunset.
At around 6 PM, Kecak (pronounced “ke-chak”) dance is performed daily on a cliffside open-air venue within the temple grounds of Uluwatu Temple. It is based on the epic Ramayana, focusing on how Rama and his brother rescued his abducted wife, Sita, with the help of the monkey king and his troops.
Kecak dance is characterized by the chanting and dancing of 75 men while the performers re-enact some of the scenes from the epic tale. It is recommended to go there early at least an hour ahead to secure a good spot. You can purchase your ticket in advance too.
Admission Fee: IDR 30,000
Kecak dance Fee: IDR 100,000
Opening Hours: 9:00 AM – 7:00 PM; 24/7 for worshipers
Kecak dance Schedule: Starts at 6:00 PM daily
Location: Uluwatu Temple, Pecatu, South Kuta, Badung Regency, Bali
Lines can be too long. but you can book your ticket in advance through Klook. You can also join a tour which includes a Kecak dance ticket via Klook. The tour package includes roundtrip transfers (hotel pick up and drop off) and tour driver.

Lempuyang temple and east Bali Tnostro
Il tempio di Lempuyang è stato il preferito tra gli Instagrammer a causa della sua iconica Porta del cielo, che incornicia il maestoso Monte Agung sullo sfondo. Ma questo tempio, più formalmente chiamato Pura Penataran Agung Lempuyang, è sicuramente più di un semplice posto selfie. In piedi sul pendio del Monte Lempuyang, è uno dei sei luoghi più sani di Bali, che si ritiene mantengano l’equilibrio spirituale nell’isola.
Se vuoi scattare la foto al cancello del paradiso, preparati ad aspettare a lungo, a meno che tu non stia visitando presto. Puoi prenotare un tour privato di alba su Klook, che include anche una sosta a Virgin Beach e Asah Hill. Il tour al tramonto è disponibile anche.
Se non sei il tipo mattutino, puoi anche prenotare un tour di un giorno normale con fermate a Tirta Gangga e Taman Ujung Water Palaces. Le opzioni di join-in e private sono disponibili per questo.
Importante! Se hai intenzione di prenotare anche il tour di Bali Instagram (vedi l’oggetto successivo), questi tour potrebbero sembrare ripetitivi perché entrambi si fermano al tempio di Lempuyang. È meglio sceglierne solo uno.

La città di Ubud è ammessa da fitte foresta e risaie. Oltre ad essere il centro culturale e artistico di Bali, incorporare l’agricoltura nel turismo è diventata popolare nella regione centrale. Ahimè Harum è uno di quei luoghi che promuovono l’agro-tourismo. Il posto offre esperienza nel caffè – test del caffè e negozio di caffè – e attività estreme.
L’altalena super estrema mi ha toccato il respiro! Esistono tre tipi di altalene: swing super estremo, super oscillazione e swing di coppia. Altre attività sono la volpe e la bici da cielo. Nota: al momento della stesura, Flying Fox (zip line) è sotto manutenzione. Se vuoi provare l’oscillazione, sarai legato al cablaggio di sicurezza, quindi è meglio indossare pantaloni o pantaloncini. Per l’estetica fotografica, puoi noleggiare una gonna da treno avvolgenti o indossare capispalla di tipo kimono.
A parte le attività di adrenalina, l’intero posto ha vari punti pronti per l’instagram.

Tempio di Ulundanu Berata
Foto di Kara Santos
Situato sulle rive del lago Bratan a Tabanan, Pura Ulun Danu Bratan (o semplicemente Pura Bratan) è un grande tempio d’acqua indù Shaivite. Proprio come gli altri templi d’acqua Uluwatu e Tanah Lot, Ulun Danu Beratan offre un tableau da sogno quando la marea è alta e il lago d’acqua confina con il tempio su tutti i lati. La catena montuosa di solito nebbiosa dona un’atmosfera mistica. Ma a differenza dei due templi marini che sono caratterizzati da onde ruggenti, Pura Bratan è un’immagine di calma e serenità.
Oltre ad ammirare il tempio, puoi anche apprezzare il giardino e le bellissime fioriture che punteggiano i terreni del tempio. Ci sono anche aree perfette per le sessioni fotografiche. Se vuoi andare oltre il terreno del tempio, puoi noleggiare un motoscafo o un paddleboat per esplorare il lago.
